  1. La terapia ormonale sostitutiva: sostituire che cosa? Catania, 26 ottobre 2006 Terapia ormonale sostitutiva e rischio oncologico Prof. A.Gadducci Dipartimento di Medicina della Riproduzione, Divisione di Ginecologia e Ostetricia, Sezione Interna di Ginecologia Oncologica, Università di Pisa

  2. La terapia ormonale sostitutiva: sostituire che cosa? Terapia ormonale sostitutiva e rischio oncologico • Breast cancer • Endometrial cancer • Ovarian cancer

  3. Estrogens and breast cancer Estrogens may: • stimulate cell proliferation and increase the numbers of errors occuring during DNA replication • cause DNA damage via their genotoxic metabolites produced during oxidation reactions • induce expression/activation of h-TERT, growth factors, matrix metalloproteinases and VEGF

  4. IGF-I and breast cancer Estrogens Insulin TGF- EGF Antiestrogens Glucocorticoids TGF-ß StimulateInhibit IGF-secretion

  5. IGF-I and breast cancer • Breast cancer patients show elevated plasma IGF-I • IGF-I serum levels increases with tumor size • IGF-I levels higher in women with cancer recurrence • Survival probability greater in patients with plasma • IGF-I levels < 120 ng/ml Vadgama et al, (Oncology 1999)

  6. Thymidine labeling index in normal breast epithelium during different phases of the menstrual cycle authors weeks of menstrual cycle 1 2 3 4 Meyer (1977) 0.17% 0.17% 0.79% 0.79% Anderson (1989) 0.51% 0.37% 0.78% 1.25% Williams (1991) 1.8% 1.5% 3.4% 3.6%

  7. Progestins and breast cancer cell mitosis T- 47D and MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines Progestins induced an initial increase in the number of S-phase cells, but 12h later a reduction occurred so that after 24h the percentage of cells in S-phase was lower than baseline and was maintained at 96h Clarke and Sutherland, 1996; Musgrove et al, 1991

  8. A re-analysis:Collaborative Group on Hormonal Factors in Breast Cancer (Lancet 1997) • Collaborative combined re-analysis • More rigorous than a standard meta-analysis • 51 studies world-wide • 51.000 cases / 108000 controls • no statistical evidence of variation in the results across the studies • 80% of users had taken oestrogens alone, and there was no evidence of variation according to type of HRT preparation

  9. The risk increased with increasing duration of use (+ 2.3%/year) roughly equivalent to the increase associated with delaying menopause by a year The effects of HRT on breast cancer disappeared 5 years after ceasing use A re-analysis:Collaborative Group on Hormonal Factors in Breast Cancer (Lancet 1997)

  10. Breast cancer cases in 1000 women aged 50 over the next 20 years non HRT users 45 HRT 5 yrs 47 HRT 10 yrs 51 HRT 15 yrs 57 Collaborative group on Hormonal Factors in Breast cancer, Lancet, 1997

  11. Obesity and breast cancer risk in postmenopausal women Conversion androgens estrogens SHBG levels • Breast cancer risk increases from the basal individual risk by 2.3% for each use of ERT, but this increase seems to be almost entirely limited to lean women • Overweight postmenopausal women alredy have achieved the maximun hormone-related risk to their endogenous production of estrogens

  12. Cythocrome P450 gene polymorfism, HRT and BC risk • In a case-control study (1521 BC cases and 1498 controls), CYP1B1 gene polymorfism did not influence overall BC risk. • However, women who had taken HRT for > 4 yrs and carried a particular CYP1B1 genotype (CYP1B1*3/*3) had a RR of BC of 2.0 (95% CI 1.1-3.5) compared with long-term HRT users without this genotype From Rylander-Rudqvist, 2003

  15. Risks and benefits of estrogen plus progestin in healthy postmenopausal women (Women’s Health Initiative [WHI] randomized controlled trial) 16.608 postmenopausal women aged 50-79 with an intact uterus were randomized by 40 US centers in 1993-1998 Randomization Placebo CE 0.625 mg/die+MPA 2.5 mg/die 2002

  16. Risks and benefits of estrogen plus progestin in healthy postmenopausal women (WHI) After a median 5.2 follow-up HR ( 95% CI) Coronary heart disease 1.29 (1.02-1.63) Stroke 1.41 (1.07-1.85) Pulmonary embolism 2.13 (1.39-3.25) Breast cancer 1.26 (1.00-1.59) Colorectal cancer 0.63 (0.43-0.92) Endometrial cancer 0.83 (0.47-1.47) Hip fracture 0.66 (0.45-0.98) Death due other causes 0.92 (0.74-1.14)

  17. Risks and benefits of estrogen plus progestin in healthy postmenopausal women (WHI) Absolute excess risks per 10.000 person-years attributable to E+P • 7 more coronary heart disease events • 8 more strokes • 8 more pulmonary embolisms • 8 more invasive breast cacers • 6 fewer colorectal cancers • 5 fewer hip fractures 2002

  18. WHI trial: Critical questions • 26% of women were current or past hormone users and 1/3 of them for > 5 years. • The risk for breast cancer was increased only in those women previously treated with hormones. • In never users before entering the study, the HR for breast cancer was 1.06 after 5.2 years of HRT. • MPA is a very potent down regulator of the estrogen receptor. • HRT is a collective name, but not all types of HRT are the same.
